MOUNTAIN VIEW, Calif., Sept. 21 /PRNewswire/ -- Bizzy (http://www.bizzy.com), a community of like-minded shoppers and diners discovering great local businesses, today announced the availability of the Bizzy 2.0 app for iPhone and iPod touch. The free Bizzy mobile app makes it easy to discover new businesses based on available local deals or events near you and connect with your favorite local businesses to receive updates on timely specials, events and information.
"The hyper mobile and connected customer of today doesn't clip ads or print promotions received via email anymore," said Gadi Shamia, President and General Manager of Bizzy. "Bizzy aims to provide you with an accessible discovery engine - wherever you are and when you want it - so you can find a new lunch hot spot or discover special offers at a nearby boutique, whether you're sitting at your desk or on the go with your iPhone."
